My Tab's touch screen hangs on wake! Help! - Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Ok, if i let my Tab sleep for like 5 minutes, when i try to wake it using the power button, the screen comes on, but when i touch the screen nothing happens at all, the screen will go dim and then off as if im not touching the screen(which i am constantly). I know the device did not hang as i can rotate it/use the hardware volume buttons, they function normally. After about a minute more or less, the touch is back to normal, the screen works fine as long as it doesn't go into standby for long. if i reboot the device, everything still works fine, only when the device goes to sleep then this happens.
Btw my tab is GT-P3100, i thought it was a firmware problem, so i went from ICS 4.0.4 to JB 4.1.2 and now im on CyanogenMod 10.1. All three firmware gives the same problem, touch screen does not respond to my touch from wake, only working properly after about a minute. Anyone has encountered the same problem before?

Try different Rom,
Prefered stock,

unlimited vibration

Hi guys,
When I get a message the phone vibrates 3 times, like normal. But sometimes randomly it vibrates 1 time and then unlimited vibration. Until I get it out of my pocket and press the powerbutton so the screen goes on again. When the screen is on again the phone resumes the 2 vibrates. Very strange. I had it on multiple roms with different radio's. I don't use TF3D but HTC Home Plugin VGA edition.
I've experienced the same issue you speak of with the stock ROM, and I haven't found a solution or cause yet either.
I think it was this what caused my phone to sometimes go out. Because the vibration consumed all the power.
Do you use Touch Flo?

That would be the angry bee. It is something that just happens. I've had it so bad that I have had to soft reset the phone. It only happens to me every great once in a while. However, I haven't run the stock rom since about 2 hours after buying the phone.
has happened to me twice now.
ive had the phone about 2 months.

I've had it happen to me a few times and had to soft reset it to make it stop. It doesn't happen too often, so I haven't been too worried about it.
I've had it happen when I launch an application just as it is starting to vibrate to signal a notification.
Do you guys also always have it as the second vibration? When it hangs it always is the second vibration at me. And when I press the screen again he makes 2 after it again.
I had a similar issue with the initial stock rom - my wife messaged me in the middle of a meeting and my phone would not STOP VIBRATING. Since it was on the desk, it buzzbuzzbuzzed really loud.
Now I'm on the Energy 3.0 rom and have not had an issue. Even with the updated leaked stock rom I didn't have the issue.
I discover that it only vibrates wrongly when I have the screen off. Pretty annoying though.
Don't we use some kind of stuff in common?
I use:
HTC Home VGA Edition for front end instead of manilla
HomeScreen++ for the handy shortcuts
I checked some things again, I am not 100% sure but I think it was HomeScreen++ that caused the problems here. The exact settings: at the Tools tab "Lock if Display is Off and vice versa, which didn't work anyway at the touch pro (did work on htc's I had before though), but I checked it off and now it still rings 3 times and no less or more. Hope this was it.
I do not use HomeScreen++ and it happens to me at least once a day, sometimes twice. Mine always seems to happen on the third vibrate, it will do the first two and then the third one just stays on. I press the power button for the screen to come back on and it stops.
I have it too sometimes.
EnergyRom 3.0
And you guys have something that auto lock the screen when you press the power off button? Or do you lock the screen before pressing the power button? Because here it seems to have something to do with the locking in combination of the standby mode (screen off)

[Q] Android Revolution HD 3.0.3 - Standby and Lock Screen Issues

I have flashed Android Revolution HD 3.0.2 yesterday and 3.0.3 this afternoon.
I have some issues relating with the Standby Mode and Lock screen.
When i want to lock the screen, i have to try and press the power button several times before my HTC become standby. It's also the same case when i want to turn on my HTC from standby mode.
Does anyone have the same issues? please advise.

Ah, glad to see I'm not the only one with the lock issue on Android Revolution.
I've just tried a different ROM and it works fine. I just have to press the lock button about 6 times before it actually puts the screen to sleep, the other 5 times I lock it and it locks but the screen doesn't sleep, it just goes to the ring screen.

[Q] Screen won't wake up?

My screen would not wake up, I flashed Cyanogen Mod, the latest version, but as soon as my screen goes off and I tried to wake it, it'll just stay in a lighted black screen forever, nothing happens, it wont wake or respond to buttons so I have to pull battery. It didn't happen on just this rom, I tried other roms as well. And same results, is it my phone or rom? I just got the phone today.
Which rom are you running? And did you flash a custom kernel?
Try a complete wipe and reflashing, but don't restore any apps, if you do, and see if the problem persists.

I was running the latest version of Cyanogenmod. And no, I did not flash a custom kernel. I've already tried a complete wipe and flashed the rom like so many times. Like Cyanogenmod would install, but as soon as I put the phone to sleep and I hit the home button to try to wake it, it would be stay as a lighted black screen. The phone is responding to the button but it seems like the screen would not go on, the light for the 4 buttons lights up, but the screen doesn't display anything, just backlight. Please help, this is confusing me.
Set the phone to not sleep, it will just dim the light to near 0% brightness. I used to have this problem too on some nightlies and stable cm releases even and doing the above worked for me. I also bumped minimum cpu speed to 500-800 instead of 300, which lagged too much imho.

You say you press the home button when you turn the screen off and the buttons light up? Or did you mean when you pressed the power button?
When I press on the power button to wake it up, it just gives me a black screen. However the buttons light up when I touch them just the screen wont display anything.

That happened to me once. Did you wipe "system" in CWM before installing the rom?
Same Issue
Did you ever find a fix for this problem? My G2x just stopped coming on and I never changed any settings or anything. I've wiped davlik & user data; installed stock and custom roms, but every time the screen turns off the power button fails to wake the phone up. No lights flash or anything. I've found others who have the same problem but I haven't discovered any solutions. I'm guessing this must be a hardware problem since the power button does work to initially turn on the device and lock it but can't wake it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I'm currently running a rooted stock rom with the v21y BB that's been ICS-ified

I've found this issue to exist of literally EVERY build of CM that I've every used on ANY android device. I can't stand it. I finally stopped flashing CM all together because I hate not being able to wake up my device. NO OTHER ROM has done this before. Doesn't matter the model. Here's all the models that exibit this behavior that I've tested with.
Kindle Fire - CM9, CM10 and CM10.1
Galaxy 7 tab 2 - CM10, CM10.1 and CM10.2
Samsung Epic 4g (Galaxy S1) - CM7, CM9, CM10, CM10,1
Galaxy S3 Sprint- CM10, CM10.1
Galaxy S4 Sprint - CM10, CM10.1 and now CM10.2
That's very interesting. CM... I ended up sending the phone to LG to fix. I have a GS2 now so I gave the phone to my father. It runs great now.
sulotion to screen not waking up on cyanogenmod
I was having the same problem on my Samsung Galaxy note 2. I'm running cyanogenmod 11. I solved the issue by going into setting then display and lights and unchecking proximity wakeup. I hope this can help someone else.
Thank you a lot man! I was really in panic mode.
Not Waking up
This problem started once I have upgraded to official Lollipop. When I press the power button, the screen doesn't wake-up immediately. I had to press many times the power button to get the screen comes.

[Q] Screen will not come on -- happens in multiple ROMs

Here's the problem: when the TF boots into the OS, the screen cuts off after the boot animation. I can see it fine in CWM also.
I was running the Prime ROM with HC 3.2. This ROM has worked quite well for months. Earlier this week, I was going to boot it up and use it while riding in the car. The screen was fine during the boot animation, but as soon as it hit the OS, it went blank.
I hit the power button and could tell that was working, because I could see a quick flash of backlight when I pressed it. But no screen display.
So I saw that Revolution 3.0 was released, so I installed it. The screen worked fine through CWM and everything was fine up until I installed the OS and went through the initial bootup and setup process in ICS.
When I turned it off and back on, it wouldn't come on. So I don't really know where to start. I assume this has something to do with the backlight sensor, and I have looked around here for some references, but nothing comes up.
Is there a way to disable the backlight sensor completely to test my idea? Anyone have any other suggestions? Thanks all.
My TF was serviced by ASUS back in the summer after I dropped and bent the bezel. They put a new power button daughterboard and bezel on it.
I just wiped the tablet with CWM and it let me reboot and go through the ICS setup steps again.
Screen went dark the very instant I touched the brightness slider control...

Look up android sleep of death. I had on previous devices but not the note 13
I actually think it does wake up just not turning on the screen , i can hear the volume changing , and the device going to mute mode , but screen is off .
or maybe i am wrong and its normal to change the volume with the screen is off on samsung devices?

It isn't normal no, the only button that should work with the screen off is the screen on button. I'd start by looking into what shaun suggested above and if you find no fix, maybe just try a factory format? (back your data up first).
I get a slightly similar issue on mine but I got the bug when I flashed Hyperdrive Rom, my screen occasionally "goes off" but it's not really off, I can see the back light still. I just have to screen off/screen on and I'm fixed. Your issue sounds different though because you need forced reboot.
Hope you get it fixed, Good luck!

did OP ever get this resolved? I am having the exact same problem with the 10.1 2014. Screen goes to sleep, but when pressing power, or opening the book cover, the backlight does not turn back on. You can see the image on the LCD in the light and hear screen presses, or volume adjustments.
Tried factory reset, and Odin'd a fresh rom.. No go

I got rid of my bug by turning off airview in the pen settings, ive been stable since then. Wouldnt harm trying it?

I am on stock rom and never rooted. Mine started doing the exact same thing. You can see it on in the light. Factory reset didn't fix.
Hi,
I have a quite similar problem. It started with a charging problem so I thought changing the cable would solve the problem but no. My charging is kow ok, but each morning after a long charging night, my note n8010 with stock android gets SSSSSSLLLLOOOOOWWWW . Black screen, then slowly wakes up, but need 10sec to unlock screen and unusable... I have to force reboot too.
It seems like it doesnt want to wake up, like extreme energy saving mode... ?! No solution actually found for me
The only fix for me is flashing Boefla kernel
